Software built for UK music schools and academies
Manage tutors, lessons, group classes, attendance and parent payments in one place — recurring or termly billing, signed consent forms and recitals included. Free to start; pay 1% on payments you take, with free done-for-you migration of your card and Direct Debit mandates.
Sound familiar?
- Lesson schedules live in spreadsheets while each tutor keeps their own register, so nobody has one clear picture of who attended.
- Termly invoices are chased by hand over email, and reconciling who has paid for which lessons swallows hours every term.
- New pupils arrive with paper enrolment and consent forms that have to be printed, signed, scanned and filed.
- Recitals and concerts mean another round of separate sign-up sheets, ticket lists and payment chasing.
- Pupil records, medical and SEND notes, and tutor DBS dates are scattered across folders with no single safe home.
Everything a UK music schools and academies needs, in one place
Lessons and group classes, all scheduled
Build recurring one-to-one lessons and group classes across multiple tutors and rooms, with capacity, waitlists, term dates and holidays handled. Everyone sees the same calendar.
Attendance register per lesson
Mark present, late, excused or no-show for every lesson and group. Excused and no-show sessions are never charged, so the register and the billing always agree.
Termly and recurring parent payments
Take fees by card or Direct Debit on a monthly or termly cycle, or per session and drop-in. Auto-charge and overdue reminders run for you, and you can still record cash and bank transfers.
Parent and pupil portal
Families get their own login to see the lesson schedule, payment history, messages and any signed documents — cutting the back-and-forth with your office.
Consent forms with e-signing
Send enrolment, photo and trip consent forms for parents to sign online, with a legal audit trail. No more printing, scanning and chasing paper.
Recitals, concerts and workshops
Run recitals, summer schools and masterclasses as ticketed events, with sign-ups and payments handled in the same place as your regular lessons.
Grades, badges and safeguarding records
Record exam grades such as ABRSM and Trinity passes as achievement badges on a pupil's profile, keep medical and SEND notes, and track tutor DBS and safeguarding dates in one place.
Questions UK music schools and academiess ask
Is Adminished built for schools rather than solo tutors?
Yes. It is designed for music schools and academies with several tutors, shared rooms and an office team, so administrators get one view across every tutor, lesson and pupil rather than each tutor working in isolation.
Can it handle termly billing?
Yes. You can bill parents on a termly cycle, or monthly, per session or as drop-ins. Auto-charge and overdue reminders run automatically, and you can also record cash and bank-transfer payments you take offline.
How do parents pay?
Parents pay by card or by Bacs or SEPA Direct Debit through their portal, and you can record cash or bank transfers too. Excused and no-show lessons are never charged, so families are only billed for lessons that count.
Does it track exam grades like ABRSM and Trinity?
It records grades and exam passes as achievement badges on each pupil's profile — a lightweight way to log milestones. It is not an automated syllabus or progression engine; you decide what to record and when.
Can I run recitals and concerts through it?
Yes. Recitals, concerts, summer schools and workshops run as ticketed events, so sign-ups, capacity and payments live alongside your regular lessons instead of in separate sheets.
Is our pupil and safeguarding data handled safely?
Yes. Adminished is built for UK GDPR and ICO expectations with UK data residency and a public Security page. You can store medical and SEND notes and track tutor DBS and safeguarding dates within the system.
What does it cost to switch?
Adminished is free to start and you pay just 1% on payments you take through the platform — there are no per-tutor licence fees. Migration is done for you free of charge, carrying across your existing card and Direct Debit mandates so families never have to re-enter details.
